Grant,
I could parse the 4 character string as follows:
int charValue = Integer.parseInt(myString, 16); // myString = "25B5"
char retValue = (char) charValue;But I'm worndering if there is any class library (extensively dealing with unicode characters) available
to convert a string like "R = \\u0394y\\u2215\\u0394x" into the character array
[0] = 'R'
[1] = ' ' // space
[2] = '='
[3] = ' ' // space
[4] = '\u0394' // mathematical symbol delta
[5] = 'y'
[6] = '\u2215' // Division symbol
[7] = '\u0394'
[8] = 'x'
Thanks for your help.

I think you have made a mistake in writing "\\u25b5", since that represents six unicode characters and not one. You must mean "\u25b5" instead.
You could say String unicodeString = "\u25b5"; char unicodeChar = unicodeString.charAt(0);
Hmmm. I assumed that the OP was asking for a way to get from those 7 characters to the
Unicode character they describe. Imagine parsing a string that has escaped Unicode
sequences in it, for example.
Ramanand, have you looked at CharSet and CharSetDecoder? If you parse the "25b5"
into a byte[], those may be what you need.
